Tell us about Bodrum as a destination. What does it offer to your guests?
Bodrum is one of the favourite Mediterranean destinations of today’s discerning travelers. Blessed with a rich cultural history and a timeless natural beauty, its appeal is underpinned by a 174 km stretch of attractive coastline. Bodrum preserves its inherent charm and provides the perfect setting in which to indulge in pure pleasure; be it sailing through wonderful passages and secluded anchorages on the turquoise waters; horse-riding through the breezy olive groves, orchards, and forests; biking, trekking along the hills of the peninsula in search of the countless islands and bays that grace the coast. Described as "the land of eternal blue" by Homer, Bodrum is also an open-air museum and home to many remarkable sites of ancient Halicarnassus.
